I've been lucky to come across some great guns and when I see one I should have I just buy it. The longest I've chased a Parker is 2 1/2 years. Grade 3 hammer that hadn't been out of a gun safe in fifty years. Gave fair market value to the gentleman as he didn't know what he had but it took 30 months for him to decide to sell it. Great find though.
He had a well used 12 ga Trojan that I passed on. I should have bought it too as unmolested Trojans are hard to find. He's going to use it for duck hunting. He was going to take the hammer money and bought matching M70 rifles for himself and his two sons.
